Pen + Pencil Grip

As an Architect + Designer, I spend most of my day drawing, sketching, and writing with precision. The BIC Pen, a staple for many hobbies and professions, is far from perfect. Its small diameter and hexagonal shape make it uncomfortable to hold after extended use, potentially causing writer's cramp on your fingers if used excessively. Individuals often hold pens differently, but research reveals two primary categories emerge. Understanding these nuances, I set out to improve this fundamental tool by experimenting with various shapes and sizes through design, printing, and testing. The outcome is a comfortable and practical grip that suits everyone and most generic pens or pencils. Adding extra weight reduces the need for excessive pressure while writing or sketching, creating a truly relaxing experience. Simply print it, insert your preferred pen or pencil, and enjoy effortless sketching and writing comfort.
